FOUC (or Flash of Unstyled Contents) is where the page loads the boring normal text for a split second each page before it gets replaced with the proper text.  Which looks a bit crap.

Luckily the fix is ridiculously simple.  This usually occurs in IE, but this may fix it for other browsers also. Simply put:

<script type=”text/javascript”>
Cufon.now(); <!– avoid the fouc in ie with cufon –>
</script>

Somewhere just before the closing </body> tag and the problem is solved.  If only everything in life was that simple :)
